Body Evolutions

Experiencia fantástica: Sonia was introduced to me by my friend when I had a severe back pain after having my first child. It was so bad that my husband thought I was in greater pain than when I was in labor. Through her gentle and detailed sessions, Sonia gave me back my normal life and more strength to prepare for welcoming one more child. After COVID, my now teenager daughter and I are back in the studio to get back in shape and to get stronger together. I cannot recommend Sonia enough for all levels of fitness.

Experiencia fantástica: When I first met Sonia, it was due to my curiosity of the studio name. I was already doing business close by and finally stopped in for more information. That was nine years ago. At that time, I thought I was meeting an immediate goal of strengthening my core; maybe lose a few pounds. What I learned, and found in Sonia, was an amazing teacher & instructor who taught me so much more. I felt my body change and learned I didn’t want to not attend, for too many days, at a time! Pilates and GYROTONIC is happily, a part of my life where I feel balanced, strong, whole, healthy & a part of me. Sonia is attentive to all her students individual needs. In her caring way, she ensures her clients make the adjustments and corrections required, throughout her class. Her passion for her work and clients is clearly evident, making her a leader in the industry. May 2016

Experiencia fantástica: Have been working with Sonia for several years and absolutely love it! She is wise, intuitive, and an amazing coach. Very grateful for Sonia and Body Evolutions.

Experiencia fantástica: I have enjoyed the Gyrokinesis classes for three reasons: 1. The instructor, Sonia, built up every movement gradually. The intensity was increased steps by steps so I always felt "doable". 2. Sonia varied the similar movement in sessions. There were many ways to stretch a part of body so the class was not "routine" or boring. 3. Sonia has been paying attention to students' practice, even in on-line classes, so we learned the movement correctly.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been going to Body Evolutions for several years. I look forward to my sessions with Chris because I feel so much better when I leave. I have a lot of arthritis in my spine and hip and if I had not discovered Body Evolutions I would probably have a difficult time walking by now. Body Evolutions has helped me continue my active lifestyle.

Experiencia fantástica: Sonia and Chris are the best! My wife and I started taking lessons from Chris and not only is it challenging, but he does a great job of keeping it fresh and fun. We would highly recommend taking lessons with Chris or Sonia especially if you're new to Pilates (like we are)

Experiencia fantástica: New to Gyrotonics and felt an immediate difference with my posture. Sonia’s been great! Highly recommend their studio.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been taking GYROTONICs and Pilates from Sonia for a fairly short time and already feel more flexible and stronger than I ever have. The benefits include better mobility, freedom in range of motion, release in my spine and joints, more energy, and an improved physical and mental state. I can’t emphasize enough how Sonia’s guidance through these disciplines has improved my standard of living.

Experiencia fantástica: Just finished Sonia's online Gyrokinesis class and I feel completely renewed! Chris and Sonia teach classical Pilates and Gyrokinesis in their studio. They are giving FREE lessons online every Sunday at 11:00 a.m.. Register at Body Evolutions!

Experiencia fantástica: Sonia Lopez at Body Evolutions is amazing. She knows so much about the body, muscles, joints, posture, circulation, breathing, etc. that her workouts are so much more than exercise. If COVID-19 has you sitting more than usual, check out her schedule of classes on line. You won't be disappointed.

Experiencia fantástica: Sonia is a great teacher. She knows her stuff and is always working to expand her knowledge. She teaches in a non-judgmental way that makes everyone feel comfortable, regardless of their fitness level. Body Evolutions is a community place. You can feel the camaraderie. Workouts are challenging yet fun. Whether it's a private session in person, or an online group class (she taught for free during Shelter in Place), my body always feels so good afterward.

Experiencia fantástica: I highly recommend Chris and Sonja at Body Evolutions. I went in out of shape and with little to no strength in my body. I'd never done pilates before and it took me a while to get comfortable. After Chris' patience and our work together, my back no longer hurts, I am more flexible and I am much stronger. Its a great practice to take into my middle years. Go see them!!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Sonia is an excellent Pilates instructor. We always look forward to our next session.She is very knowledgeable about the human body.If you are having problems from operations/injuries, she knows what to work on to get you feeling better. I walk in to the studio and walk out after my session always feeling better.

Experiencia fantástica: I highly recommend this studio! Very friendly, tailored to individual needs, great for injury rehabilitation and prevention, but also physically challenging and provide an amazing fun workout. Sonia (my instructor and owner) takes time to demonstrate every movement and always pays close attention to correcting my form. If you are thinking about taking up Pilates or Gyrotonic, book a session with Sonia or Chris at Body Evolution Fitness. I promise you, they will listen to what you want and need to accomplish, create a plan, and be committed to helping you reach your goals. I highly recommend this studio. 5+ Stars!

Experiencia fantástica: I am not new to Gyrotonics, but I was new to Sonia until yesterday. She was very welcoming to this out-of-towner, but she got me going gently, and in an unassuming way. She is amazing - she could see the difference when I was “lifting” my ear towards the ceiling - who knew! Sonia is very masterful, having trained and learned well from the master of Gyrotonics. She challenged and coached me to move in new ways, and I enjoyed every moment. Thank you Sonia!

Experiencia fantástica: OMG! What a wonderful experience! This is my second time at the studio and what a blast! Sonia our instructor was not only very patient but also very knowledgeable. She helped guide three of us newbies on proper technique, posture and breathing. I’m not a good breather I have asthma as well as the giggles. As a Bikram yoga devotee I haven’t yet found a Pilates studio that I like well enough to commit to a regular practice in my area of San Diego. If you are lucky enough to live in San Jose, run don’t walk to this studio and sign up with Sonia!

Experiencia fantástica: Chris and Sonia, are wonderful trainers; they are very knowledgeable and always up to date with the newest trends in fitness and nutrition. My wife and I, have been customers for 5+ years. Both trainers have adjusted pace and level of difficulty to our individual needs. I love my Gyrokineses private lessons and enjoy the Pilates classes. My wife takes private lessons tailored to her needs for stretching, strengthening of her core and working on troubled areas. Their studio has a warm and cheerful atmosphere. Most of all, the students I know of achieve their wished for results.

Experiencia fantástica: For ten years I've worked with Body Evolutions for core strength and flexibility. Sonia and Chris are the best.

Experiencia fantástica: Sonia was an outstanding instructor. I am a beginner. She clearly explained and assisted me in performing each movement correctly. I have always been challenged with exercise requiring coordinated movement and really appreciated her supportive approach. Thank you for a very positive experience!
